Never Say Never Again or You Only Marry Twice

We are obviously once again back "home" in Australia, returning from a three week vacation, which featured an encore production of our wedding (this time with novel appointments such as guests and the presence of a family member or two) followed by a proper honeymoon in Queensland's Whitsunday Islands.

Despite being largely planned from the opposite side of the world, the wedding came off without a hitch - no cold feet, no violence, no family feuds. Everyone showed up, behaved well, and enjoyed themselves. Music, catering, etc. was great We did have one genuine wedding crasher (all of about 16 years of age) who managed to sneak past the highly attentive security guard - I managed to unmask the impostor, but only after he managed to score a couple of free drinks: kudos to him.

Unfortunately, due to the numerous demands on our time during the week, we didn't manage to enjoy too much of Atlanta. We did get to visit the new Georgia Aquarium - now the largest in the world - which was freakin' huge and impressive. We also made a run to the outlet mall to stock up on low-cost, tasteful clothing which is a commodity we find in short supply down here (not that I'm necessarily in a position to judge - but Uta assures me this is the case).

More photos of all the action that you could ever possibly care to see will be making the rounds - if for some reason you miss out, drop us a line and we'll send you a link (unless of course you're a total stranger, in which case we may or may not oblige).
